The AIF Cricket Team in London in 1919

An Australian Imperial Forces cricket team played a number of first-class matches shortly after the First World War. The bulk of these were played in England in 1919, but there were also games played the following winter in South Africa and Australia. The team was captained by Australian Test player Herbie Collins, who in November 1919 made 235 (out of 441) in a win over South Africa.
